Package: virt-viewer
Version: 0.2.1-1
Severity: important

 I am connecting virt-manager to a host using qemu+ssh protocol. The connection is called qemu+ssh://user@host/system. 
This works fine and four virtual machines are shown. However, when I double-click on any of the virtual machines 
I get the following error:

 Error: VNC connection to hypervisor host got refused or disconnected!
 Error: zsh:1: command not found: nc -q 0 127.0.0.1 5904

 I have checked that the nc command actually exists (also in the host).
 zsh is my shell both in the local and remote machine. 
 I have used the same procedure from Mint 13 and Fedora 17 and it can connect to the same host without any problem. 
 I can access the configuration of the virtual machine clicking on the info button, so it seems it is a problem 
 only showing the VNC virtual console.
